Episode 77 - Lease Audits, AI & Avoiding Seven-Figure Surprises with Jason Aster

In this episode of Moving Into the Future, host Jack Macejka, Vice President of National Accounts at The Advance Group, sits down with Jason Aster, Managing Director at KBA Lease Services, to pull back the curtain on one of commercial real estate’s most misunderstood services: lease auditing. They discuss how tenants—many unknowingly—overpay millions over the life of their leases, and how KBA’s tech-forward approach is reshaping the way large portfolios identify, correct, and prevent billing errors. From capital expenditures to clever interpretations buried in dense lease language, Jason breaks down how even “airtight” deals can leak dollars—and how KBA's proprietary AI tools are tightening the screws. Plus, Jack and Jason dive into how AI is transforming unstructured financial data into actionable dashboards, the future of automation in lease management, and why “public defender for tenants” might be the perfect job description.  Catch more episodes at https://theadvancegrp.com/happenings/podcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
